Definitions
- the present invention is through an epicyclic gear set and a controllable brake device to structure the clutch function, so as to replace the conventional friction type electromagnetic clutch device, and combined with two or more than two of one or more rotary kinetic power device to constitute a hybrid power train having epicyclic type clutch device.
- a friction type electromagnetic clutch device is often installed between conventional automatic or semi-automatic power trains or hybrid power trains for performing engagement or disengagement, so that the power train is enabled to perform various functional operations; however, when the friction type electromagnetic clutch device is in a disengaged state, residual torque may remain, and thereby to cause power loss and system malfunction.
- US 2004/0251064 A1 is directed to a power transmitting apparatus that uses a small configuration to efficiently carry out various forms of propulsion, such as a speed change propulsion and even an EV propulsion including a series type EV propulsion.
- the present invention provides a hybrid power train having epicyclic type clutch device, in which the controllable brake device is used to control the power train having the epicyclic gear set serving as a clutch device, which can be widely applied in a hybrid power train with dual rotary kinetic power devices composed of an engine (ICE100) and a rotational electric machine mainly served as motor function (EM102), or a hybrid power train with triple rotary kinetic power sources composed of an engine (ICE100) and a rotational electric machine mainly served as power generator function (EM101) and a rotational electric machine mainly served as motor function (EM102), wherein the structural configuration of each rotary kinetic power device combining with a transmission device includes a coaxial in-series structure or a multiple axial in-parallel structure for satisfying the requirement of applied space.
- a hybrid power train having an epicyclic gear set that serves as a clutch device, said hybrid power train coupling an engine and at least one electric machine comprising: a rocker arm; a controllable brake device, for locking and releasing said rocker arm; an epicyclic gear set including at least one epicyclic wheel, an input wheel, and an output wheel, wherein said at least one epicyclic wheel, input wheel, and output wheel are bevel gears or bevel friction wheels, said at least one epicyclic wheel engaging both said input wheel and output wheel; a first rotation shaft connected to and rotatable with the input wheel; a second rotation shaft connected to and rotatable with the output wheel; an external input/out shaft rotatably coupled to an input/output side of at least one electrical machine; and a cylindrical rotation shaft extending from said rocker arm and coaxial with said first rotation shaft, said cylindrical rotation shaft being engaged by said controllable brake device to prevent rotation of said rocker arm.
- the epicyclic wheel is rotatably mounted on the rocker arm such that when the controllable brake device locks said rocker arm to prevent rotation thereof, said epicyclic wheel couples said input wheel to said output wheel, and when said controllable brake device releases said rocker arm, rotation of said input wheel or said output wheel causes said rocker arm to rotate, at least partially decoupling said input wheel from said output wheel, said epicyclic gear set thereby serving as a releasable clutch controlled by said controllable brake device to control transmission of power between said first rotation shaft and said second rotation shaft.
- said first rotation shaft is rotatably coupled to an engine and said second rotation shaft is rotatably coupled to said at least one electrical machine.
- said electrical machine serves primarily as a motor for converting input electrical power into rotary mechanical energy to drive said external input/output shaft, whereby when said electrical machine is driven as a motor and said controllable brake device engages said cylindrical rotation shaft to prevent rotation of said rocker arm, said engine and the electrical machine are coupled through said epicyclic gear set to jointly drive the external input/output shaft, and whereby when said controllable brake device releases said cylindrical rotation shaft, said engine is decoupled from said at least one electrical machine.
- a second rotational electric machine may be located positioned between the engine and the epicyclic type clutch device.
- FIG.1 is a schematic structural view showing a rocker arm (A101) and a sleeve type rotation shaft (AS101) driven by an engine (ICE100) and an epicyclic wheel (W103) of an epicyclic gear set (EG101) being combined with a controllable brake device (BK101), and an input wheel (W102) of the epicyclic gear set (EG101) and an output/input end of a rotation shaft (SI02) being combined with a rotational electric machine mainly served as motor function (EM102) and an output/input end rotation shaft (S1026), according to one embodiment of the present invention.
